HT2050

I have the Benq 2050 and love it. I think it is an amazing projector for the price. However, if I were to buy it now I would spend a little more and get the 2060 because it is LED and you won’t have a fan noise or picture degradation due to an older bulb. Plus you’ll never have the replace the bulb which isn’t fun. Just my two cents. Under $1000 the Benq.

Upscale 4K is a joke. It sucks. Get a good 1080 like the benQ 3050 (1000$) Also being farther away from it makes it almost pointless you can’t tell the difference. If you have 6k to blow then get a true 4K laser projector. I bought one of the most expensive upscale 4K Sony projectors I could find on Amazon(3,500$) compared it to the benQ 3050 and it was an easy easy decision. Also you have to do some digging to find out if it is true 4K and not an upscale. Edit: this is my experience as a layman. May be wrong with some jargon. My point is the difference between a 1k projector and a 3k projector does not scale and you don’t get that much more paying 2k more when a 1k projector is very good

Budget? I'm in a similar situation as you with my BenqHT2050 for the last eight years. I'm going to get an Epson LS12000 as soon as budget allows.

I have two Benq projectors, HT2050 inside and TH585 by the pool. In my opinion, you get the most bang for your buck with Benq. That being said, my next upgrade will be the Epson LS12000, but I need to finesse the budget for a few more years. Check out the TK710 and the HT5550. EDIT: BTW, the W2720i is cheaper on the Benq website.

Projectors last a long time, so spend the money on a good one now. I picked up a $750 1080p Benq, expecting to replace it within three years. It's been eight. I'm now willing to drop $5000 on an Epson LS12000 because I now know it will last me a decade. Silver Ticket screens are solid. Sure the Steward is better, but there's diminishing returns after a certain price. You can always upgrade your screen at a later date, but I doubt you'll feel the need.

It’s just a hair more expensive but I bought a benq 3050 this past year and it’s been great. Handles casual gaming well and movies look fantastic on it

So ht2060 is worth it? My ht2050 just died and it was 10 years old. Have a cheap Elephas wk1 for now

Well you need to give us some information about the space. I would go ahead and drop the BenQ GV1. 1. BenQ W1070: The Budget-Conscious Home Theater Enthusiast. 2. BenQ HT1075 (or W1075) :The Casual Living Room Viewer who needs flexibility. 3. XGIMI Halo+ : The Modern, Highly Mobile Media Consumer. 4. XGIMI Elfin (non flip): The Minimalist Smart Home User. 5. BenQ W1110 (or HT2050): The Affordable, Dedicated Home Cinema Setup. 6. BenQ MH684: The High-Brightness Presentation or Sports Viewer.

I’d recommend the BenQ W1110 https://preview.redd.it/vca7q431rk4g1.jpeg?width=1320&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f3918f468587772d3dd9b543a57e930fc00b06d7

It has nothing to do with pricing. More so performance. Since tv and movies watching is the priority this model would be able to handle that.
